The Rise and Fall of The Mall
- 1. First mall design established by Victor Gruen, an Austrian architect, who would create the first fully enclosed shopping mall in Minnesota for Dayton's Department Stores. Southdale Center, known as the blueprint of the modern mall, was built in Edina, Minnesota in 1956. This concept featured inward facing stores, and quickly grew like wildfire across the globe. Post-World War II families began leaving the cities and moving their families to the suburbs. 1952 1956 1950s Recently, there has been a shift in where people are shopping. With more and more consumers turning online for their shopping needs, consumers changing habits are affecting the traditional mall. Take a look below to see how consumers are shifting from traditional window shopping at brick and mortar stores to browsing online. Old malls are turning into bowling alleys, storage facilities, and 'lifestyle centers'. Catering to higher-end clients, restaurants and entertainment now draw shoppers to these developments. FUN FACT Women will buy more if they hear their heels clicking on polished hard surfaces, so designers often use hard flooring in hallways. Inside the stores themselves, there is often carpeting or softer surfaces to lure customers in and make them feel at home. FUN FACT This is called the Gruen transfer! It is the moment when consumers enter a shopping mall and, surrounded by an intentionally confusing layout, lose track of their original purchase intentions.
